| Analysis Plus Oval 9 vs Oval 12 I tend to agree- I'm running it right nowThank you- | |
| Maxell or TDK? yogiboy is correct. Your deck matters here. I have a 3 head Aiwa that sound better with Maxell. But my 3 head Nak? TDK was the way to go. Either will give great results in the right deck. Both are well made. I still have tapes I made in the 70s an... | |
| Still mystified by mega expensive power cords I've read plenty and heard plenty. I remain mystified though. Delivering 120v, 20 amps isn't that tough. Tight connections, adequate AWG, ground and shield. Back in the day when I used to change my own oil I believe I would have bought a length of... | |
| Critique my system... I would first look at room acoustics and speaker placementIf its a hard and cold room, throwing money at the equipment wnd isn't going to get you to your goal | |
| It was 20 years ago today. . What was your system? Wow- 30 years ago? Nothing, nothing at all. I was in grad school and my gear was packed away in Florida. I used a boom box for tunes. But what was packed away was a Kenwood KD1033 turntable, Shure V15 type 3 cartridge, Pioneer SX-450 Receiver, and... | |
| Class A or AB amp for JBL S4700 speakers Just listen to as many amps as you can with your speakers and buy what sounds best to you. | |
| Linn Sondek LP12 impressions I've enjoyed my LP12 now for 15 years. It's fitted with a Lingo, Ekos, Arkiv B. not the latest specs but that's ok, cause it makes music. I've had it tuned up 2x since buying it. I dont know that DD is all the rage, as still, most tables seem to b... | |
| Speaker's magnetic field and pacemaker I've spoken to the electro physiologist and the Medtronic rep. Neither really didn't know but offered the same general advise- keep a reasonable distance. The alarm also activates when the battery is nearing end of life. I heard it last year. Funn... | |
| Speaker's magnetic field and pacemaker Tgrisham, what's your advise for AICD's That's the one really of particular interest to me- Me and Medtronic, like Peanut Butter and Jelly- | |
| Speaker's magnetic field and pacemaker Thank you! A bad heart ain't fun. Last year I had major surgery, took 3 months to recover, and aside from bond movies at any hour of the day, my own form of self therapy, recovery and meditation was listening to music. I had asked manufacturers an... | |
| Seeking opinions about Pass Labs 250.5 amp. Not a direct comparison but I have an Int-150, which is an X150.5 and part Xp10Best SS amp I ever had. | |
| Do you indulge when listening to your rig? Pinot Noir | |
| What is your cartridge and tracking force used Linn Arkiv B set at 1.8 gr measured on an almost 30 year old Shure balance beam ( I once ad a $300 electronic guage from the UK, but it matched the readings on the Shure so I sold it! ) | |
| Want to replace my speaker cables Leaning towards the AP Oval 9's. Wondering if I should go with Oval 12's bi-wire shotgun. The total equivalent AWG for that is 9 guage, the same as Oval 9's. The kicker is the shotgun Oval 12's run less scratch than the 9's. To an earlier poster w... | |
| Want to replace my speaker cables I guess this is why I want to replace these cables- I don't generally want to swap out anything that I am satisfied with. On a side note my observation about Nordost is that the pricier the Nordost the more hyper detailed. My Nordost cables are or... |
